The Venezia manager P. Zanetti attacks this game with the team placed 10th so far. In the visitors dressing room Pescara and their manager M. Oddo are in 19th place before this match.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Venezia form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Venezia's two home games in the Serie B so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo.
M. Aramu was the last player to score a league goal for Venezia and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Venezia haven't scored in 234 minutes.
Venezia travelled for their previous game, a trip to Cremonese that ended 0-0. Preceding that match was the home game against Frosinone that was lost 0-2.
This is expected to be a close game, with Venezia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Venezia as a small favourite), we find 16 games. Venezia has won six of these, drawn nine and lost one.
Venezia are traveling soon after this match as the Serie B match at Virtus Entella awaits in four days.
At Stadio Pierluigi Penzo, Venezia has the goal stats of 1-2 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Pescara form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the Serie B ended in defeat. Last season Pescara had these away match statistics: Played 19; won 5, drew 1 and lost 13.
Pescara failed to get anything from their last game, a Serie B home match vs Empoli (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 1-2. Prior to that match, the Pescara manager M. Oddo faced defeat when travelling to Reggina and losing 1-3.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Pescara playing away and similar expectations, we found 16 relevant matches. Results were four Pescara wins, six draws and six defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Frosinone in just four days.
1 goal so far away for Pescara, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 1 league match away.
Head 2 Head
As for the last six games between these two teams, there's zero Venezia victories, four draws and two Pescara wins. Over/under statistics; two of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
